This standard calculates the diversity based on

Diversity formula

With this calculation method, the diversity factor decreases according to the formula (1.19 * N + 18.8 * N^0.5 + 17.6) / (37.5*N), in which N is the number of dwellings.

The diversified flow rate for one dwelling is calculated based on the default power 37,5 kW as mentioned in the DS 439 (CIBSE CP1 2015).
